I am a bit late to the celebration on this wonderful product, but I’ve never really needed something like this before. I’ve always had pretty nice hair, I don’t overload it with products, I don’t do too much to damage it, I don’t use hardly any heat on it, so it really is always in tip top condition.

However, I did something to change that. I had dyed it black and was fed up with it. I wanted my natural hair colour back, which was a reddy brown, and to do that I needed to lift all the colour out of my hair with peroxide.

When you do something as strong as straight bleaching your hair, the damage you do, can be really long lasting and it’s important that you get a decent deep conditioning treatment.

That’s when I found Aussie 3 Minute Miracle.

Although I had heard of  it, I had never needed to use it, so was intrigued to give it a go.

All you need to do, is wash your hair as normal, then in place of your usual conditioner use the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle and leave it on for 3 minutes (funny that!) and you’ll get gorgeous deeply conditioned hair.

This gets a 5 out of 5 for me!

When I started this project I was going to be making a corsage to wear in my hair for my good friends wedding. As it turns out she then made me bridesmaid so I won't be wearing it for this event, but I am sure I will be wearing it in the future!

I wanted something elegant, fancy, wedding-esque and to match the gorgeous dress (which by the way, Carol made for me).

I picked three different materials, a soft silky (but not actual silk) cream material, the polka dot material that the dress is made from, and some cream lace.

The making of the corsage was easy, for each of the materials I cut out 3 squares. I then folded each square into quarters and cut it as if I was making a flower shape.

I then layered them over each other, at different angles, so as when gathered it would show off all the materials.

I gathered it underneath and then stitched it to make sure it was tight,

Next I attached a kirby grip to it so it would fit easily in my hair.

Lastly, I added some little accessories, some clear, cute buttons, pearls and diamante sparkle.

I loved the end result so much, I decided to make a smaller version and wear it as a corsage on the cream jacket that would go with the dress.

I did everything the same, except added a badge pin instead of a kirby grip.

What do you think? Do you like the corsage?
